I just received my new 12 meter Yakuzu GT. I have only flown it static in the park but what a beast. This is surely the biggest, baddest 12 meter on the planet. It should make 5-10 mph feel like 15-20. I can't wait to fly it on the snow. Actually, that is a lie. I am looking forward to flying it on the snow but I am loving the water for now.

I was so stoked with this kite that I immediately ordered a full quiver of Yak GTs for the winter season. I am going to try and live without my Mantas this winter and only fly handles. Bring on the head injuries.

I have received my 3 meter

I have received my 3 meter and my 4.3 meter Yakuza GT.They are very powerful little kites. I have only flown them static but I am certain I am going to love them on the snow. They go across the window incredibly fast. I am thinking about taking them on the water with some boat support. I'll keep you all postd.

I have to say, Tony is on to

I have to say, Tony is on to something with those Yakuza GTs, they handle a lot better than the older version. I'm fitting one into my quiver somehow.

I like the 4.3 the best so far, the 14m for light wind will be the ticket though.

I did see the 12 m pick Joel

I did see the 12 m pick Joel up off the ground in maybe 6 mph of wind. The 14 and 17 must be monsters. We are probably going to need one of those. We will keep you posted.
